naiyahayal · 04-06-2008, 12:18 PM

NOW ON EBAY! I had originally offered this for $400 -- but apparently one strap is shorter than the other -- one is 13", the other 17" -- one can be shortened if 13" is is long enough (I think it is)....the bra is attached to the dress at the top with beadwork. Bottom portion is lycra, top part is stretch wine semi-sheer fabric. Large pink crystals & lotsw of silver and pearl or shell-likke beads, holograph sequins, red and white accents. Gorgeous dress! Now $300 plus $10 to ship within US (45 elsewhere)

BRA: Full B to full C (cups measure 7" up/down, 9" side to side), 40" along ribcage. Dress is 26-34" in the ribcage area, 28-39" at the lycra hip area. I am 5'6" and need 3" heels to wear it. INCLUDES 2 FULL LENGTH EMBELLISHED SLEEVES, A HEADBAND AND TWO SHORT WRIST/ANKLE? PIECES

Hi Tanya,
I cannot read the whole ad you put up, because for some reason the vertical row of ads go right through key parts of your entry! So: is one strap too short, or what does it say about the straps? And what does it say about the mesh and lycra? It looks like a very beautiful dress!!

Stunning! Any pics on a live body?

How strange.......not sure how this happens ..... text looks fine till I put the picture in.....then the text widens across the page....I guess the picture changes the format of everything in the thread....but I can still read it on my screen by using the forward and back arrows......the ads don't go through the text on my screen....hmmmm....maybe I should try downsizing pictures (haven't been successful in that area yet) or just post a link to Photobucket.

Anyway, the straps: One is 13", the other is 17" ..... so if 13" is enough, you could just shorten the second one. Also, I had originally thought the bra could be easily removed, but it's beaded to the dress along the top edge. The bottom portion of the dress is lycra, the top is a semi-sheer stretch wine fabric.

Sorry, no picture on a warm body .... but I took lots of detail pictures in the link....thanks for taking a peek, ladies!

just the straps, you mean? Of course, great idea ...... (I turn everything into halter style myself........less slippage off the shoulders.....better support...)

Last chance before Ebay tonight!

So nice. I just bought the purple pharonics that I am going to wear this Wednesday at the MCM Elgante Hotel from you (I think). This one is way too long! I'm only five foot two! I had to pay $50 to have the purple one hemmed - I can only imagine what my seamstress would ask for this. By the way the purple dress is my new favorite!

Hi! Is that the one with the skirt part made from 22 chiffon panels??? If that's the one, I'm totally surprised that's all she charged! I am 5'6 and it was way too long!! I am dying to know how she did it -- from the bottom of each panel? Or did she take it apart and shorten each one from the top? Wow, that must have been a challenge! If it's any consolation, the original price of that (new) dress was close to $700 from Dahlal-- if that's the one I'm thinking of....mesh insert, asymmetrical, lots of details? (This one would be a piece of cake to hem compared to the purple one

) LOOOOOVE that dress! GOT ANY PICTURES? PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE!!! OR BETTER YET, POST A PICTURE FROM THE SHOW! Hugs!

I'll send pics but on your email next week. I have problems posting here. I am not sure how they did it. The ladies at my cleaners are Vietnamese (I know I spelled that wrong). This dress is hot but it looks as though if I hem it it will take a lot of beading out.

naiyahayal · 04-13-2008, 11:19 PM

This dress is now on EBay!
